Brief Answer:
Stretching wont help at all.
Detailed Answer:
Well, you may not agree with that, but that is your only option.
Stretching and steroid cream can be used only in case of kids (few years old mostly). In such young age, the skin is growing so we can have a good effect of such stretching.
But at your age, the skin is not growing anymore. So stretching and steroid cream will not work for you. No doubt in that. Moreover you may make it worse with stretching.
So either you will accept it or get circumcised. There is no other option.
Giving you stretching advice would be nothing more than a lie.
